Default Air Conditioner Screeches

My air conditioner starts to screech really loud when ever I turn it on. It's all quiet I start it it up then after like a minute it just strts to squeal really loud. The belts been replaced then somebody recommended I put so of the free on or whatever that worked for a while then it started up again nome that doesn't work any recommendations??

It really depends upon what sort of "screeching" you're hearing. If the belt is loose, it could cause a screeching sound. However, if the belt is properly tensioned and you're still hearing the noise, it's most likely a problem with the compressor itself.

Your A/C compressor pulley bearing is shot. Replace the A/C compressor. It isn't exactly a simple process, but it can be a DIY.
